CSS CSS Basics (2014) Enhancing the Design With CSS Media Queries

In CSS Basics code challenge: doesn't accept my .width font-size answer.

Task: Next, create a new media query that targets all devices when the viewport width is 768px or narrower. Inside the media query, target the .title element and set the font-size to 1.4rem. Finally, target the h1 element and set its font-size to 5rem.

My code: @media (max-width: 768px) { .title { font-size: 1.4rem; } .h1 { font-size: 5rem; } }

Response: Bummer! Did you specify the correct font size for the h1?

style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */
@media (max-width: 1020px) {
  .main-header{
    background-color: tomato;
    color: white;
  }
}

@media (max-width: 768px) {
  .title {
    font-size: 1.4rem;
  }
  .h1 {
    font-size: 5rem;
  }
}
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lake Tahoe</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="page.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
  </head>
  <body> 
    <header id="top" class="main-header">
      <span class="title">Journey Through the Sierra Nevada Mountains</span>
      <h1 class="main-heading">Lake Tahoe, California</h1>
    </header>

        <div class="primary-content">
            <p class="intro">
                Lake Tahoe is one of the most breathtaking attractions located in California. It's home to a number of ski resorts, summer outdoor recreation, and tourist attractions. Snow and skiing are a significant part of the area's reputation.

h1 doesn't need the period in front for a class just write h1{ font-size: 5rem; }

Yes, thank you Vicki! Removing the extraneous period in front of "h1" solved the problem.
